Quest for truth never ceases
As wisdom brutally teaches Pacing back and forth again, and again Just searching for an end Panic wave chaos showers Sickening stench of man gone sour Laughing at us in our face, we're disgraced and then we're all erased Persevere - Holding out - Make it end! Giving in - Giving up - Let it end! Why is it infinite? The evil that revolves around our universe The always changing, never changing Why is it infinite? The evil that revolves around our universe The always changing, never changing Nothing changes! Pressure point, burning rage No turning back, no release from this cage One man calls the other one a liar There's fire escalating higher - Endless wars, lost causes Only letting up for brief pauses Time repeats this circle of madness Repetition of constant sadness Persevere - Holding out - Make it end! Giving in - Giving up - Let it end! Why is it infinite? The evil that revolves around our universe The always changing, never changing Why is it infinite? The evil - The always changing, never changing Nothing changes? [1st Lead: Craig] [2nd Lead: Tim] Analyze - Cut to shreds Overweight yet underfed Food for thought, no answer to our questions Save your breath - Waste no words Undescript, it's so absurd Wisdom sits beyond our meager minds Infinite - ! |

Step by step it's happening, it's slowly eating you
Numbing your mind to the pain You broke the rule, the payment's cruel Selfish road, you paved the way Hiding in your fantasy, it's easier to lie The choice you made could kill You're just one lonely victim A wasted life! Don't you feel as if your walls fall in? The way you live could put you underground Step by step, by step Surviving hanging by a thread Step by step, by step It's time to turn the table Step by step, by step Society's not done with you Step by step, by step It just gets worse until you - pull through! Screaming out, you cry for love, they only toss you out Rejected, lost in a daze It's all so cold, do as you're told Hit your knees now start to pray Dream about a time before, securely locked away Within your heart is the key If you don't open up then... You'll lose your life! Don't you feel as if your walls fall in? The way you live could put you underground Step by step, by step Surviving hanging by a thread Step by step, by step It's time to turn the table Step by step, by step Society's not done with you Step by step, by step It just gets worse until you - pull through! (Lead: Tim) Deep inside you're selfish, and infected with desire Filled your head with dreams that died Just couldn't get no higher Look at what you've become - Synthetic, morphite cyst Your luck's run out, the thread has snapped A cold depressing end - (Lead: Craig) Don't you feel as if your walls fall in The way you live could put you underground Step by step, by step Surviving, hanging by a thread Step by step, by step It's time to turn the table Step by step, by step Society's not done with you Step by step, by step It just don't stop Step by step, by step Don't try to run before you walk Step by step, by step Do it for yourself kid! Step by step, by step It's just the way you have to learn Step by step, by step Step by step, by step, by step Step by step, by step, by step Step by step, by step, by step Step by step, by step, by step! |

Ideals pounded, what's wrong is right
Churches founded, with heaven in sight Do unto them as they tell you to! How can the children believe this is true? Burn our thoughts, they can change our minds Hear pathetic lies Put to end, all the empty cries Now it's time for eye for I Faith decided out of the womb Slapped into life, and then slapped in your tomb When will it end? When will the lying stop? Burn our thoughts, they can change our minds Hear pathetic lies Put to end all the empty cries Now it's Eye for I Hate! Churning your face, consumed by fear Unreal illusion of a perfect world Twist into form, the true abyss Crushed in the palm of fate's hands! [1st Lead: Tim] [2nd Lead: Craig] Eyes stare with empty, but evil glances Children with nothing in mind but to breathe Twist it to form - Twisting to form - Twisted to form - Twist me to form then they - Burn my thoughts, then they change my mind Tell pathetic lies Put to end all my empty cries Now it's eye for I Hate! Churning your face, consumed by fear Unreal illusion of a perfect world Twist into form, the true abyss Crushed in the palm of fate's hands! Hate! Churning your face, consumed by fear Unreal illusion of a perfect world Twist into form, the true abyss Crushed in the palm of fate's hands! |

We've always been told to stand up tall
"Guard the nation" This killing force that we have made, what for? I am sickened by this attitude that plagues The Mother Earth It always seems that we're all fighting We don't know what it's worth Close the door as they beg for more Children cry as they're left to die See the tears running down their faces See compassion is at end Mother Earth is crying Rest in peace... Peace! Who can you believe? It's never what it seems Feel the anger They're tightening the vice, now who pays the price? We will! I am saddened by this selfishness and, "Who cares" Attitude! Put down your arms and stop this fighting Save our Mother Earth Close your eyes, say your last goodbyes Self-destruct, we've run out of luck See the lights turn to darkness Realize there is no hope The human race is dying Rest in peace... Peace! [1st Lead: Craig] [2nd Lead: Tim] Desperate - Is what we've all become Helpless - There's nowhere left to run Crushing - The spirit of mankind Forbidding - What's yet to come! We've always been told to stand up tall "Guard the nation" This killing force that we have made, what for? I am sickened by this attitude that plagues The Mother Earth It always seems that we're all fighting We don't know what it's worth Who will drop the curtain Who will end Earth's history No more "Happy ever after" Rest in peace... Peace Rest in peace - [Lead: Tim] |

(Theme: Craig)
Looking into saddened eyes that morn, I'm unashamed Witness to the crying of the poor, I can't relate Afraid to see what lies behind the lies, I'm ignorant Don't tell me, I won't know, just leave me be Every time a page is turned Every time a channel's switched, I look away Washing off my dirty hands If I don't want to understand, why should I? Pain and hurting of diseased Taking life by ill dispose Shunned and tossed away, tossed away! Glutiny, I'm hungry then I'll eat, I'm a selfish pig Thinking I'm thirsty, I'll have a drink, it pours away So tired, so I'll lie down awhile, the lazy life, ha! Don't bother me, I'm dreaming, just le me sleep Every time a page is turned Every time a channel's switched, I look away Washing off my dirty hands If I don't want to understand, why should I? Pain and hurting of diseased Taking life by ill dispose Shunned and tossed away, tossed away! (Theme: Craig) (Lead: Tim) Disgusting! Revolting! They sicken me! Send them somewhere out of sight, away from us Separate their children from our young, they're dangerous Don't say I didn't warn you, just wait and see! Every time a page is turned Every time a channel's switched, I look away Washing off my dirty hands If I don't want to understand, why should I? Pain and hurting of diseased Taking life by ill dispose Shunned and tossed away, tossed away - (Theme: Craig) Pain and hurting of diseased Taking life by ill dispose Shunned and tossed away, tossed away! |

Regression! Progressive downfall
Grabbing what's there and still wanting it all On words they fall Obsession! Religious belief Worshipped on Sunday, forgotten all week One foot in Hell Taking the truth from "The Book" and then twisting it Feeling they're touched by the Lord Loving their neighbor, yet tasting the flavor of sin But seeing no wrong Cramming the wisdom that righteously flows in them Walking the crooked, straight line Closing of minds to these innocent crimes Now they're deaf, dumb, and blind! One foot in Hell Wretches! This pitiful man Preaching and teaching with cross in hand On words he falls Into...! His final mistake This fool was fooled, it was all give and take One foot in Hell Taking the truth from "The Book" and then twisting it Turning the pages of writing, it falls into place A puzzle of words Cramming the wisdom that righteously flows in them Attempting to fear the Commandments they hear Now they're deaf, dumb, and blind! (1st Lead: Craig) (2nd Lead: Tim) (3rd Lead: Craig) (4th Lead: Tim) "I look to the Heavens and call the Lord's name. Praying on my knees, with much faith, and little doubt I have a yearning for the answers to my calling in life Am I wasting away on spirits of myth? Am I questioning the Lord's prayer? Is this unholy temptation or, my final realization? Please, God, if you're there for me, give the wisdom for faith Help me Lord! God help me" - ! Regression! Progressive downfall Grabbing what's there and still wanting it all On words they fall Obsession! Religious belief Worshipped on Sunday, forgotten all week One foot in Hell Taking the truth from "The Book" and then twisting it Feeling they're touched by the Lord Loving their neighbor, yet tasting the flavor of sin But seeing no wrong Cramming the wisdom that righteously flows in them Walking the crooked, straight line Closing of minds to these innocent crimes Show me the way - Point to the light Is there a Heaven after I die? What is a truth - Where does it lie Give me the answer Bare my soul - Naked and cold End confusion, shed my last tear Take me Lord - Open your Gates End my deep sorrow One foot in Hell Who's answering the bell? |

The end is coming fast, flags they fly halfmast
Soldiers have come to fight, Tanks roll off the hill, men are lying still, Armies of hate in sight, Death now wills to be, kill for you will see The end is coming fast Planes shoot, blood runs, Killing innocent people, Bombs hit were blown to shit, Killing all our children Now prepare to die, bombs light, The sky eat dirt and hit the ground, Kill a Yankee snitch, run hit the ditch Troops prepare to die Planes shoot, blood runs, Killing innocent people, Bombs hit were blown to shit, Killing all our children Evil lives in minds of those Who fill our lives with war, Making sure the lines are guarded, We're closing all the doors, Mad desire fills your head, Your mind id brain dead, What you've seen you'll never forget Your child is dead, Over the hill the light is the blast, The smell of guns in the air, Screams of pain the wish for death, Emotions sounding scared, Don't try to live, you will not live, The force brakes through the line, First to shoot, blow off your gun, Now kiss your ass good bye Troops drop Summons to this battle field left to die, Death before your eyes, hear the cries, Military minds have called the shot, The power broke loose, they watch you rot, Armies on the hunt, taking force of life, Life is just a game, throw the dice, The power and the might, who's right? From air and sea and land, we must fight As good as dead Who are you to know the reasons why? Going to war men must die, The power and the might, who's right? From air and sea and land, we will fight As good as dead, As good as dead, as good as dead, Your all as good as dead |

What is this, an evil church?
People deceived upon the Earth, Sundays prayer has lost the truth, Will we dare to live the truth? What I see is a serpent hiss, Congration makes the list, Pass around your money plates Gather' round to fill the date Welcome to the church of lies Doves will die, A priest will cry, Man will tithe Welcome to the church of lies Chalice of blood, Waits to fill us, Chalice of blood Unfaithful priest an evil man, Mark of death fills his hand, Black and white turn to grey, In blaspheme he will pray, Deceived by religion he will see, Run in panic you will flee, Out of heaven he will fall, Fame to riches says it all, Welcome to the church of lies Doves will die, A priest will cry, Man will tithe Welcome to the church of lies Chalice of blood, Waits to fill us, Chalice of blood Talk in tongues out of mind, Is this truth you will find? The evil ways is lose control, Satan's laugh will be your toll, Church of god lives in sin, Gathers up all of men, Out of good we're still in fright, We all must live to see the light Chalice of blood, Waits to fill us, Chalice of blood You're welcome to church of lies |
